In a big nutshell, I've been overweight since the age of 5 and I've been reading everyones story here and it's given me so much hope for a healthier future.
I've struggled with weight loss since a young age and have tried everything! I was the youngest kid at Jenny Craig at the age of 9, then at 11 I was on cabbage soup diet, Metabolife, etc. Now and days I've tried Jenny Craig AGAIN, Nurtisystem, Lemonade Diet, Lindora, the list goes on and on, but I've finally come to the decision to take a more serious approach with the lap band.
Update:
Everything has happened soooo FAST. I joined here on 7/23, had my first doctor's appt. on 7/26, and was approved and have a sugery date schedule for 8/10! Everything has happened so soon, but I am happy to have found this site where I've gained so much insight to what I can expect with this surgery. =)
Can't wait for my band life =)
